Update

I have become more and more cautious about posting stuff on here because I keep getting random comments from strangers. So... I haven't posted a lot lately. But, it's time for an update so I thought I'd do just that!

1st off...we're moving...yet again. This house we are living in is a rental and they owners are coming back from overseas early so they will not renew the contract with us...we thought maybe we could stay and THEY could go rent a house, but that idea wasn't accepted. :) We have found another house that IF we stay in MD, we should be able to stay in for a few years. Sooo...that's good. I do like the house, it's wonderful, but the owner does not have a fence, so she is going to allow us to put one in at her expense. The time...is all we'll have to put in.

2nd-ly: Baby is growing well. I love feeling HIM move and kick around. It makes me smile and laugh...people probably think I'm crazy just randomly giggling...but I am SO happy to be pregnant and feel SO blessed that God allowed us to have another baby. I prayed for HIM for an entire year, never losing hope that we could have another child, just wondering when God's timing and My timing would cross. Oh how wonderful it is.
Few things I have experience with this baby that is different for me is extreme heartburn. I have been taking medicine daily and have the option to bump it up to 2 pills a day. I haven't needed to go that, until 2 days ago. I will see how tonight goes, maybe I won't have to take the second pill... :) Another thing is I am WAY more uncomfortable...maybe I'm getting older or my body is way out of shape. Seems like things are a little harder this time around. Even still, I Have very little problem with being woke up to a little poke or kick here and there. What a blessing that is, and to think that it's all because of Love!

Skye applied for a job in our home town and although we wanted the job desperately, it offered no benefit package. Since I'm 5month pregnant we thought that probably wasn't the smartest of ideas, so we declined the offer. How I wanted to go home. I feel as though my nieces and nephews will hardly even know us, or their cousins. I know if I went home today, Luke and Lucas would have NO idea who I was. This, totally bums me out. But I'm desperately grasping on the hope that ONE DAY the good Lord will send us home, or nearby, so we can know our family and our family can know us!

Zoey is riding in the St. Jude's Trike-a-thon at her school on Monday. She has worked to raise Money, knowing that SHE is not keeping the money but giving it to a hospital that will help little kiddos who are sick. She is super excited about it, and when I read her the emails people write she is just elated that they are helping HER help others! It's such a JOY and HONOR to teach your child that OTHERS are important and Matter and they need LOVE too. She's so loving and giving anyways. I will take pictures on Monday...should be So wonderful. She's raised enough money to win a TShirt so she can not wait to get/wear it

Allie-bo is growing like a skinny weed. She's hungry all the time, but hardly eats, and is FINALLY in 3T clothes, although MOST of them are way to big. The Length is what she needs but the extra fabric around is too much. Most shirts could be short dresses, but the sleeves fit perfect. Same with pants, I have to use the elastic thingy and pull them all the way tight, but the leg length is perfect. Oh well, she's healthy...that is for certain.

Skye is doing well. He job seems to have gotten on a schedule of flights so we have actually gotten 2 days off in a row 3 weeks in a row. This is such a blessing and we are totally focusing on the positives. He was supposed to deploy at the end of this year before the holidays, but things have changed and maybe...by the Grace of God alone...he might not have to deploy at all until middle of next year. I can manage a summer deployment, because we can go to Ohio and have help...but a winter deployment, with snow, school, and a new baby, I was NOT looking forward too. Another prayer of mine is to ONE day have Skye have a job w/o deployments...AT ALL!

This is us, in a very small nutshell. Thanks for reading...if you are someone who DOESN'T know us, you are not wanted here, please leave! :)

Hi Hannah,
You can make your blog private. It's a bit more trouble, since you have to invite each person by email & they need to accept to be a reader of the blog. May be something to think about if you continue to receive inappropriate comments. I enjoy your updates on the family & am so excited for your newest blessing.
God bless,
Carrie
